Many people don’t know the huge number of colleges and universities that we have here in California. If you are exploring college applications but aren’t sure what your options are, click this link to see a map of public and private colleges and universities in our state.

If you are undocumented and live in California, there is financial aid to support your educational goals (college, university, or trade school). The California Dream Act Application (CADAA) is not FAFSA, nor DACA; it allows undocumented students to receive free financial aid such as: state and university grants, community college fee waivers, Cal Grants, and private scholarships. For a list of CADAA FAQs and answers, please visit this California Student Aid Commission website.

You may be eligible to pay the in-state tuition rate in California if you meet the requirements noted in AB 540 (expanded by SB 68 and SB 1141). To check your eligibility, check outthis in-state tuition tool. For more information,  check out this AB 540 quick guide from Immigrants Rising.
